18" SS Braided Leader Hose 1/8" M to 1/4" F Swivel
This Viair Corporation hose connects an air compressor or tool with a 1/8 inch male NPT thread to a 1/4 inch female swivel NPT fitting. The 18 inch length provides a short, flexible link for tight mounting points. Stainless steel braiding protects the inner tube from abrasion and heat in automotive or workshop environments. It is supplied new and intended for compressed air systems.
Replaces worn or damaged leader hoses
Swap out a cracked, kinked or leaking leader hose to restore a secure connection between the compressor outlet and the air line. The swivel nut prevents hose twist during installation and when the tool is manoeuvred. The upgrade is worth it when the original hose shows external braid wear, fitting corrosion or loss of pressure at the joint. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains chemicals known to the state to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
Check thread sizes and pressure rating before
Verify that the compressor or regulator port is 1/8 inch male NPT and that the mating coupler or tool inlet is 1/4 inch female NPT. Confirm the hose working pressure meets or exceeds the maximum output of your compressor. Ensure the 18 inch overall length suits the routing space without stretching or sharp bends. Orders of $75 or more ship free from the manufacturer.

Questions about this item
What length and thread sizes does the 92801 leader hose use?
The hose is 18 inches long with a 1/8 inch male NPT end and a 1/4 inch female swivel NPT end.
How do you attach the 1/8 inch male end without stripping the brass fitting?
Hand-tighten the male NPT thread into the compressor port, then give one quarter turn with a wrench; over-torquing cracks the brass.
When should the stainless braided hose be replaced?
Replace it if the braid shows corrosion, the swivel leaks, or the hose becomes stiff and cracks when bent.
